Thank you all who donated and who commented and added to this thread and our common knowledge base

Unfortunately these things happen and I'm sure it will happen again as not everyone is here watching, yep there
are still a few people in the world who have not become a member yet

I'm sure we are going to handle it like we did this time, it's good to know when the chips are down we as a group
can come together and help one an other, this was shown before when Ken was having a problem a lot of
members helped him out and I"m glad to see that spirit is still alive here now !

there is more than enough to fix the laser now and any and all left over will be donated to LPF to help keep the lights on
